Unfortunately, a Christian on TV who speaks rashly has these things broadcast everywhere. I haven't taken Pat seriously since before his failed presidential bid . But ashamed to be a Christian over this? Pat Robertson's ministries have clothed, fed and given hope to more helpless/homeless people hundreds of thousands of times more than everybody on this list combined.

The American Center for Law and Justice also has helped many thousands of Christians from being persecuted or discriminated at their jobs, schools or businesses. If you've never been persecuted (beaten or threatened to be fired) for your faith then you don't know how valuable some of his ministries are. He also founded this. So give the guy a break.

"I'd like to say to the good citizens of Dover: if there is a disaster in your area, don't turn to God -- you just rejected Him from your city. And don't wonder why He hasn't helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I'm not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that's the case, don't ask for His help because he might not be there."
